This episode keeps you moving so fast that you don't have time to catch up to the emotion until it slows WAY down at the end. The planet is Gallifrey. No wait, it's actually Trenzalore with a crack in the wall to Gallifrey (callbacks to both Amy and the Day of the Doctor). Then the Silence, and the Church, and all of the races messing with the Doctor's timeline to prevent him from coming to Trenzalore (callbacks to the Pandorica and the "River is a psychopath" arc). Then seeing the Battle of Trenzalore play out. And then... screeching halt, just so that tidal wave of emotion catches up and drowns you. The Amy gut punch at the end was just the icing on the cake. Bastards. I loved every minute of it.

But then I'm a huge Classic series fan, so I hated watching him bash Martha with Rose's memory all the time, instead of taking her at face value. That didn't feel like the Doctor to me. 🤷♀
